Looks like a string of sites have shut down over fears about being unmasked and legal action being taken against fmovies, who were running most of the sites.
https://kaido.to/home is being discussed as an alternative. I am unfamiliar and can’t vouch for it at this time though.
https://4anime.gg/ still exists and works too.

Hell will freeze over before crunchyroll does anything useful. Shit site that doesn’t even host 10% of existing anime
Over a year ago I tried writing down on which streaming services the anime I was watching or wanted to watch were, in case I for some reason decided to stop pirating. I found that in order to access ~90% of the anime I was interested in without outright piracy, I needed five separate streaming service subscriptions plus a VPN subscription — the remaining tenth of anime I wanted to watch were wholly unavailable except by piracy. And since VPNs violate the TOS of many streaming services, you might as well be pirating, in that case! So how about without using a VPN to circumvent geo-blocking? Even with five separate streaming service subscriptions, I would in that case only have access to around half of the anime I wanted to watch.
Now I don’t want to come across as, y’know, treatbrained or whatever, but it’s like… What, $35~$40 a month to get access to only half of the anime I want to watch? I might as well be buying used DVDs from the local classifieds, because at least then I’d actually physically own my anime. The only good thing about Netflix is that they’ve got Norwegian subtitles, but even then the quality of the subtitles is sometimes questionable, and the shows themselves can be pulled at any moment. And do the Norwegian subs get saved to any piracy or subtitle websites before the shows get pulled? No, of course not, because I’m probably the only person in the world who actually gives a shit.
Definitely don’t pay for Crunchyroll, I like reminding people that they don’t want to pay their voice actors union wages.
Or refuse to let you use English subs when listening to English dubs.
If only they kept funimation instead of crunchyroll when they merged
Don’t use anime streaming sites just use nyaa.si and pirate episodes on the fly - much faster, better quality, and your choice of specific fansubs/etc!!!
Torrents (and especially that site specifically) have met all my needs for years. Good torrent software (like the free, open source qbittorrent), will let you literally stream the video just as well as a site, by downloading chunks in sequential order.

Bless that site, been using it a ton lately
Ugh. Aniwave was a good one. There’ll be another good one I’m sure, but it sucks to constantly have to swap.
this sucks so much :/ I use it every day
maybe I’ll stick to nyaa.si
Damn, Kaido looks so slick, I remember when these websites looked like they were held together with 90s html and malware. I guess I’d better watch stuff before it all ends up getting taken down.
9anime is still working for me
9animetv is not 9anime, different people that simply copied the name and took the search engine rankings when one of the other 9anime domains was taken or lost. 9anime changed its name to aniwave when it happened as far as I’m aware.
You mean the pirate site I’m using is pirating the name of a different pirate site? Lmao
Yes, this is also why you don’t see much complaining about it
I’ve long since switched to downloading everything from nyaa.si, but that’s unfortunate.
I went to zoro.to and it redirected me to ACE’s website

hianime is good in my experience, one of the better streaming sites ive used
It’s great though I haven’t been able to watch DBZ in original 4:3 on there
Animesuge which is what I use just put out the same stament. Thanks for the alternatives I’ll bookmark them for now.
Apparently this is because of an anti-piracy lobbying group called “Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment”
“Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment”
More like Alliance for Piss and Shit
to 9anime. damnand gogoanime a while back too
There’s also animelon.com which has a much more limited selection and is subs-only, but has the benefit of including episode transcriptions in Japanese, and Japanese subtitles with a pop-up dictionary.
Hypothetically you could even use tankie.tube or another PeerTube instance, but the selection there is even more limited.
I mean yeah 9anime is old. Use like allanime or gogo or pahe. Even wco. Aniwave or kaido are for the flashy stuff.
stremio is where it’s at now
If you want a reliable source that won’t ever go offline
- Miru, open-source and no setup for streaming anime. Possible risks due to it using torrent and a hostile developer
- Stremio with real debris and torrentio
- Nyaa.si and directly torrenting
